North Kanara District, India (S. Kemp, October, 1916). This 

 species comes near to the t3'pe, L. tortricomorpha Kirk., from 

 Australia. 



It is possible that Cotyleceps Uhler, and Leirioessa Kirk., 

 are the same, as a specimen I identify as C. marmorata Uhler, 

 from Japan is generically the same as the above, species. It is 

 ahio probable that both are the same as Andes Stal.

One male and two females from Castle Rock, North Kanara 

 District, (S. Kemp, October, 1916). 



If my identifications of these two species be correct then 

 they should not be placed in Brixia. . ' 



Borysthenes fascialatus, sp. nov. 



(Fig- I.) 



The genus Borysthenes is distinguished from most of the 

 Cixiidae by the presence of ~a swollen subantennal process which 

 is fringed with hairs. When at rest the hind margins of the 

 tegmina overlap considerably, but not in the same manner as in 



the Achilidae and the claval 

 veins do not reach the apex 

 of the clavus. 



Male. Length 3 mm. ; 

 tegmen 4 mm. 



The lateral margins of

 beside the anal styles, the 

 production on right side 

 being broader than that
